About James Anderson


James Anderson in a self-styled painter, poet, and consultant, whose work has been showed in numerous galleries, schools, and non-profit organizations throughout the Greater Bay Area. Without any formal training, James has managed to build a strong body of work, with surreal and dreamlike symbolic imagery, and innate natural skill.

I find the inspiration for my concepts in time... in the events that have taken place from the beginning of time as it has been recorded by man. For those that know, or are seekers of the knowledge and wisdom, the repeats and parallels can be seen, as well as the numerous possibilities of all that may exist within this three dimensional existence. The origins of man, our beliefs, politics, victories, defeats, and evolution, are all symbolically represented in my visual works of art, poetry, and etched or sculpted into pendants and charms. Much can be revealed by these simple, yet profound pieces, for the few that know and see.
